Mike's Diary - Day 41 "Not so Useless Afterall"

I saw Jack, my face was busted. After Jack unchained me, I told him to get the old guy (whoever he is) and told jack to carry him to our base. Before I walked outside, I spat my blood on the floor right beside the villain's body and whispered 

   "I fucking told you he'd come."

Those two days outside base was exhausting. Very exhausting. I woke up from my long sleep, my body was aching, still is; however, i got my wound patched up (whoever did it, thanks.) I got up and stumbled my way out of my dusty small room and beat my way through the small gloomy hallway. I went outside and I saw people, guard mostly are keeping our base away from craze and other raiders. From afar, I could spot Jack was walking towards me.

       "Thanks." I said to him

       "No biggie, Lexi was worrying."

       "I know." I responded.

       "I need to talk to you." He said

       "About what?"

       "Your brother, and your base."

       "What about them?"

       "We had a conflict, I wanted to plant some trees, and vegetables, but your brother only cares about defense. We argued and he tried to hit me but I blocked it. Never talked to him since." He  explained

        "He is my brother. He built this base long before we came. Defense is important, but you do have a good point. I'll talk to him when I see him. Where's Lexi?" I said

         "Playing with the others, yeah I guess I can't say much, I have to get going, get your ass out of trouble, you got two holes already, you dont need more bullet holes." He responded

I chuckled "Ohh, mind if you help Jessie sorting the firearms? Thanks Jack."

I went to Lexi and her friends, she ran up to me and asked if I was okay and told me that I'm stupid going off alone. And the old guy, she asked. I couldn't care less, he's still sleeping, he saved my ass after all, and shit I forgot to ask Jack who the old guy is. Lexi just starred at me and said 

    "This is bullshit Mike, I don't wanna play with other girls, I wanna help. Teach me something new, join the the crew to gather supplies, all that stuff."

     "Well why not start with helping Jack and Jessie with the firearms?" I asked. She smiled, biggest smile she has ever given me since i was gone for 2 days. Then she ran away, and she left me here, alone, peacefully, writing on my journal.
